JFK Magnet School students ran and walked around the playground on Tuesday, November 23 in the elementary school's second annual Tiny Turkey Trot, which benefits the Tamarack Tower Foundation. The foundation raises money to help support the Port Chester School District. Students brought in a dollar to make them eligible to participate.

It was a crisp cold day on Thanksgiving Day, 2010 for our Seventh Annual Turkey Trot. More than 130 runners participated in the 3.5 mile run/1.7 mile walk. The race was not about winning or losing, it was about bringing the community together and most importantly raising money for the Tamarack Tower Foundation to support the continued excellence of the education provided to the students in the Port Chester Public Schools.

Prizes were awarded in various categories that had nothing to do with speed or order of finish. The awards were for the youngest competitor, oldest competitor, raising the most money and most family members competing.
